Anyone who ever sets a foot in San Diego should visit Alforon at least once.
I am obsessed with this place’s food and even more their hospitality.
The owners are husband-wife duo and what an amazing people they are.
We visited their place for the husband’s birthday and couldn’t have preferred to go anywhere else.
The lovely lady sat with to understand our food preferences and recommended a few dishes.
Her sense of humour and hospitality have made this place one of my favourites.
I had the softest chicken of my life there.
They offer the best flatbread pizza.
Their love dessert is to die for.
If you are a food lover, then this place should be the first on your list.
If you go to this place, please listen to their owners/chefs and you will have the best food of your life.
The parking space is limited in front of the restaurant but might find a street parking near by.

Thank you so so very much for keeping in your plans when visiting beautiful San Diego.
Truly truly appreciate your visits and this write up very much, so does the lovely lady that helps you choose your dishes.
Guests like you who appreciate what we do give us the energy to always continue on our quest to share our Lebanese food heritage.
Thank you so so much for your kindness.
Sincerely.

One of the best, most authentic restaurants experiences I’ve ever had in my almost 18 years here in San Diego.
You know how there are times when you want to eat your meal in peace and don’t want the owners/chefs stopping by to give you their two cents or tell you story after story? Well here, I could sit for hours listening to stories of history or get advice on why I ordered too much spinach and cheese dishes (even though we all know that’s not physically possible).
You feel like you’re stepping into someone’s Lebanese household, that’s the vibe you feel immersed in.
The food was delicious.
The dessert was out of this world.
I’d come back here again and again…damn, I’d live here!!

Amazing, authentic food with excellent service.
Don’t get too attached to your order because the owner will tell you how to make it better, and she’s right! Definitely try their famous dessert!
